Overview

This is the forty-eighth bilingual haiku collection originally written by this author and introduces haikus featuring Irish culture, history, literature, landscapes, flora, and fauna, with parallel haikus about Japanese counterparts where applicable. The essence of haiku is to elevate one's feelings and sentiments to a more objective and larger perspective. This mental engagement can facilitate embracing empathy for others who went through tragic experiences. Ireland has a long history of bloodshed events, including the invasion by the Normans, the conquest by the British, the independence war, and the civil unrest with the Irish Republican Army. With this in mind, this haiku collection explores the hearts of the Irish people against the backdrop of their history and culture, and expresses them in a form of concise poetry with annotations. Specifically, this haiku anthology presents 89 original haikus with appropriate season words per the Japanese calendar.
